A heads up for folks who like to use the newest versions of FFmpeg with AVStoDVD:
Starting around end of July 2016, shortly before version 3.1.2 was published, the FFmpeg devs changed the way FFmpeg interacts with AviSynth (again). In AVStoDVD this results in a crash as soon as FFmpeg starts its thing.
Luckily the workaround is pretty easy: All you need to do is add the path to the "AVStoDVD\Lib" folder to your path variable. The file "A2DSource.avsi" in this folder loads a couple of AviSynth plugins, but with current FFmpeg versions this plugin loading fails. Unless you add this Lib folder to your path.
Of course there is also the question how much sense it makes under AVStoDVD to always use the latest FFmpeg versions. I have no idea if anybody still works on the MPEG2 encoder, for the last year or so I could not see any differences in encoding quality using different FFmpeg versions.
